Hazlewood’s IPL Rampage Destroys DC as RCB Cruise to Record-Ease Win
This is the kind of bowling spell that completely reshapes a T20 match in minutes and Josh Hazlewood has just delivered one of the most ruthless performances the IPL has seen, as Royal Challengers Bengaluru tore through Delhi Capitals in a one-sided encounter that barely lasted as a contest.
From the very first over, Delhi’s batting lineup looked under siege. Hazlewood came charging in with pace, bounce and precision that left no room for recovery. He struck almost immediately, removing KL Rahul with a delivery that climbed sharply and forced a mistimed shot straight into the hands of the keeper. Before Delhi could even reset, he struck again on the very next ball, ripping through the top order like a storm that refused to slow down.
What followed was total collapse. With Bhuvneshwar Kumar operating in perfect sync at the other end, Delhi’s top order simply fell apart under relentless pressure. Within the powerplay, the scoreboard read an almost unbelievable 6 for 8, a situation where even reaching a respectable total looked out of reach. The batting side looked frozen, unable to adapt to the movement, the bounce and the accuracy coming from both ends.

There was brief resistance from Abishek Porel and David Miller, who tried to steady the innings, but the damage was already irreversible. Delhi were eventually bowled out for just 75 runs, a total that underlined the sheer dominance of RCB’s bowling attack. Hazlewood returned later to finish what he started, ending with outstanding figures of 4 for 12, sealing his impact on the game in emphatic fashion.
In response, Royal Challengers Bengaluru barely broke a sweat. The chase was over in just over six overs, as the batting lineup accelerated with complete control. Virat Kohli added another milestone to his legendary IPL career, crossing 9,000 runs, becoming the first player to reach that mark. His calm presence ensured there were no surprises, as RCB wrapped up a dominant nine-wicket victory.
Beyond just the result, this match highlights something bigger about momentum in T20 cricket. A single spell can define everything and Hazlewood’s performance is a reminder of how elite fast bowling can still dictate outcomes in a format often dominated by batters.
Stay tuned, because in a tournament like this, moments like these don’t just win matches, they shift the entire narrative of the season.
